Comparative Christianity: A Student's Guide to a Religion and its
Diverse Traditions explores what Christians have in common and then
works through the three major subdivisions of the faith: Eastern,
Roman, and Protestant. Using categories common to many definitions
of religion, each chapter employs the categories of belief,
individual and group moral codes, ceremonies, and associations. The
book is a good choice for a textbook on Christianity, for the
general reader and/or the follower of other religious traditions
who want to learn about the Christian faith. By reading this book,
readers will have a fuller knowledge of what Christians, whatever
tradition, have in common and what distinguishes one Christian
group from another. Comparative Christianity is different than
other similar books on the market. It includes groups normally
ignored, such as the Coptic and Ethiopian Orthodox Christians and
Mormon groups beyond the scope of the Salt Lake City Latter-day
Saints community (including the recent Texas group at the center of
a polygamy controversy). Also, Comparative Christianity includes a
review quiz at the end of each chapter so that readers can see how
much knowledge they have acquired. These quizzes may also be used
by professors if the text is used in a course.
